NICG declares state of emergency for Nain after meeting with Provincial Department of Municipal Affairs people.

Twin Otter load of bottled water arrives in Nain to be distributed by Department of health of Nunatsiavut Government to children under 2, elderly and those with medical conditions.

Equipment on the way to somehow divert the water supply so that it can be filtered, no details on that yet.

Will take at least two days to get things sorted out the mayor says.

Rain with up to 15 mm forecasted is now underway.

I would anticipate a delay on any fix to the water problem, plus new run off will add to the problem.
